How do people find strength in their journey to sobriety? Dr. Rick Marks and co-host Angelia Savage dive into the depths of identity in leadership, unpacking how our sense of self, shaped in childhood, influences our ability to lead effectively. With a rich blend of personal stories and professional insights, Dr. Marks explores the idea that true leadership stems from understanding and nurturing one's own identity.
He argues that many leadership challenges arise from an insecure identity, leading to ego-driven actions rather than trust-based leadership. Dr. Marks shares his personal journey of overcoming a tumultuous childhood to highlight how self-awareness and emotional maturity can transform leadership styles. By addressing the four essential questions that shape identity—value, mattering, love, and purpose—Dr. Marks provides listeners with practical steps to enhance their leadership capabilities.
This session is a treasure trove for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of character-based leadership and emotional intelligence. So, are you ready to explore how your inner world affects your leadership style?
